Paint Me Back Home In Wyoming |
She was painting a picture of slum life when the cowboy came limping by |
Wearing tattered old boots with one sole gone and a far away look in his eye |
Well he watched for a while as she painted and then he said mama you surely |
paint well |
Yes you got all this on your canvas the dirt the squalor and the hell |
Well she asked to paint him in the setting ah but he shook his head slowly and |
low |
He said naw I won’t fit your picture unless you can paint be back home |
Can you paint me back home in Wyoming riding free neath the big sky above |
Free as the wind on the prairie out in the hills that I love |
I long to get back to Wyoming and I’ve hoped all these years that I can |
Please paint me back home on your canvas paint me back in Wyoming again |
Well I never claimed this festered city |
You know I was raised on a ranch out in the west |
I spent my young years bustin' horses and boy they said I could ride with the |
best |
So I came here to Madison Square Garden to ride in the big rodeo |
Ah but I got stepped on and all crippled up and chute bronc bustin' is all I |
know |
Ah boy if I could just get back to Wyoming I wouldn’t feel so alone |
Ah but the pain is too much for the roamin' so please can you paint me back home |
Can you paint me back home in Wyoming… |
